Hey Tony. Your analysis on this case is nonsense.
Every time I see you you are shilling for the ChiComs.

re : Every time I see you you are shilling for the ChiComs.
In what way am I shilling for the ChiComs.
I am merely stating facts, and the plain fact is that many companies in the west are moving there manufacturing base out to countries like India, and China.
That is not an analysis it is a plain statement of fact.
The reason why I take an interest in this is because one of those jobs moved out was mine.
I am not sure with your every time either since for the last year or so I have been back in uniform as a called up reservist.
Cheers Tony

Please also provide an example of an Indian government entity buying a US company making highly specialized devices for an analogous purpose.

The primary foundation of all of this is NAFTA and GATT and the related economic philosophies that brought them about. A primary one of these is what I refer to as "economic appeasement". Followed by the vain hope that conversion to liberty, freedom, and capitalism would be the byproduct. **EL STUPIDO**
This has permitted not only the direct attack against our defense related technology and manufacturing but the inderect erosion of our entire economy, work force, non-defense manufacturing base, and our entire future.
I know of no other way than to continue to wave the elements of our distruction in the face of the ignorant so at least they could not ever say they were not told.
It is as much a treason to be intentionally ignorant as it is to do it openly.

Two major US aerospace companies, Hughes Electronics Corp. and Boeing Satellite Systems, Inc. have been charged by the US State Department with 123 counts for violating the Arms Export Control Act and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, reports the Washington Post. The companies are charged with illegally transferring sensitive US space technology and instructions during the mid-1990's that could have helped the Chinese military develop and perfect intercontinental missiles. In addition, to curry favor with Beijing, Hughes hired the son of a PLA military General-called China's "most important space official"-who oversaw a $600 million communications satellite contract. A third company, Loral, previously agreed to pay a $14 million fine and to spend $6 million on internal reforms to stop [illegal] overseas technology transfers.

December 9
China's Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence, General Xiong Guangkai - the man who threatened to level Los Angles using nuclear weapons - arrived in Washington D.C. to meet with Under-Secretary of Defense Douglas Feith, reports the Washington Times. Evidence suggests China has sold M-11 short-range ballistic missile technology to Pakistan, transferred CSS-2 intermediate-range ballistic missiles to North Korea, and may now be complicit in the nuclear technology swap that recently took place between Pakistan and North Korea. The Pakistan C-130 cargo transport aircraft that has shuttled between Islamabad and Pyongyang, trading nuclear enrichment technology and equipment for longer-range missiles, in fact has been refueling at a Chinese PLA Air Force base. Last Spring, General Xiong signed "Joint Military Production" and "Joint Defense" Agreements with Pakistan

Before the Subcommittee on International Security, Proliferation and Federal Services Committee on Governmental Affairs United States Senate November 7, 2001
There is little doubt that the present system allows American exports to endanger our security. A recent example is American transfers to Huawei Technologies, the Chinese company caught helping Iraq improve its air defenses by outfitting them with fibre optic equipment. The assistance to Iraq was not approved by the United Nations, and thus violated the international embargo.
The history of Huawei shows how American exports to China can wind up threatening our own armed forces. At about the time when this companys help to Iraq was revealed earlier this year, Motorola had an export license application pending for permission to teach Huawei how to build high-speed switching and routing equipment ideal for an air defense network. The equipment allows communications to be shuttled quickly across multiple transmission lines, increasing efficiency and reducing the risk from air attack.
Motorola is only the most recent example of American assistance. During the Clinton Administration, the Commerce Department allowed Huawei to buy high-performance computers worth $685,700 from Digital Equipment Corporation, worth $300,000 from IBM, worth $71,000 from Hewlett Packard and worth $38,200 from Sun Microsystems. In addition, Huawei got $500,000 worth of telecommunication equipment from Qualcomm.
Still other American firms have transferred technology to Huawei through joint operations. Last year, Lucent Technologies agreed to set up a new joint research laboratory with Huawei as a window for technical exchange in microelectronics. AT&T signed a series of contracts to optimize Huaweis products so that, according to a Huawei vice president, Huawei can become a serious global player. And IBM agreed to sell Huawei switches, chips and processing technology. According to a Huawei spokesman, collaborating with IBM will enable Huawei to...quickly deliver high-end telecommunications to our customers across the world. Did IBM know that one of these customers might be Saddam Hussein?
As a result of deals like these, Huaweis sales rocketed to $1.5 billion in 1999, to $2.65 billion in 2000, and are projected to reach $5 billion in 2001. These are extraordinary heights for a company that began in 1988 as a $1,000 start-up. Real growth did not begin until the mid-1990s, when American help started rolling in. Texas Instruments started its assistance in 1994, and by 1997 had set up laboratories to help Huawei train engineers and develop digital signal processing technologies. Also in 1997, Motorola and Huawei set up a joint laboratory to develop communication systems.
These exports no doubt make money for American companies, but they also threaten the lives of American pilots.

China is expected to have between 75 and 100 long-range nuclear missiles pointed at the United States by 2015, roughly quadruple the current number, according to a CIA study released Wednesday, the Associated Press reports. Many of those intercontinental ballistic missiles will be on mobile launchers, helping China maintain a nuclear deterrent against the vastly larger U.S. missile force, says the report, titled "Foreign Missile Developments and the Ballistic Missile Threat Through 2015."
The Chinese military is developing three new missile systems, all of which could be fielded by 2010, the study says. The Chinese may also be able to mount multiple-independent re-entry vehicles - MIRVs - on its older silo-based missiles. These enable a single missile to launch warheads at several targets, vastly increasing potential damage.

Book says China involved in 9-11 attacks: Beijing used bin Laden to assault U.S., claims author
Saying that bin Laden has traveled to China numerous times to meet with officials there, Thomas contends that "almost certainly he talked to them about obtaining" material to build weapons of mass destruction.
China's President Jiang Zemin, adds Thomas, waited three days to contact Bush about the Sept. 11 attack and told the U.S. president that, vis-à-vis the war on terrorism, China would find itself in a "difficult situation, given our well-known position of opposing any interference in the internal affairs of any country."
Washington sources say that Bush "gritted his teeth and said he would push on without China," Thomas wrote.
The author also cites what he calls the "happy parties in the streets of Beijing" following the 9-11 attacks.
"They're selling videos there with commentary saying, 'America had it coming,'" said Thomas. "Their message is: 'America can be defeated.'"

In an interview with Insight, Magnequench Inc. President Archibald Cox Jr. initially denied but later confirmed having a contract for the production of rare-earth magnets for the JDAM. When asked about the shutdown of the Anderson plant last year, he acknowledged having a 10-year agreement with GM and the steelworkers...Is this treasonous Archibald Cox possibly genetically related to the DemocRAT scum-bag Archibald Cox, who was the Watergate Independent Counsel's office's prosecutor?? If so, we can see where the patent nonchalance and unconcern about national security flows from.

Note, he appears not to have any actual entrepreneurial experience in RUNNING a company. He has apparently always been some kind of analyst or fund manager.
